Effect of azadirachtin on egg deposition and on protein concentration in the grasshopper heteracris littoralls ramb. (orthoptera: acrididae) [electronic resource]. - p.331-340.
Includes references.
Number of egg pods per azadirachtin-treated female decreased in a dose dependent manner from 6.47 ± 2.21 in control group to 2.00 ± 0.82. At higher concentrations (100 ppm and on words) no egg-pods were deposited. Nymphs treated at the beginning of the last instar suffered a significant decrease in the total protein concentration of the fat body and in the haemolymph.
Grasshoppers--Control.
